Bohemian Fashion Trends That Will Never Go Out Of Styles

Bohemian style has, for over 200 years, been an exotic alternative to the accepted fashions of the times. In modern terms, bohemian fashion is applied to the people who live 'unconventional' and usually artistic lives, which is expressed usually through their carefree and distinct sense of style.

Bohemian fashion style immediately conjures up visuals of the mid-2000s Sienna Miller and Nicole Richie who embraced boho chic as the 'it' style of the time. But, bohemian inspired fashion's original incarnation was thanks to the floaty, effortless nonchalance of Talitha Getty or Stevie Nicks channeled through a colorful caftan, trinkety necklace, an embellished sandal.  The Bohemian lifestyle also has close ties to the celebration of music, and the boho style has become the uniform at festivals across the world, beginning in the ’60s and ’70s with hippies and the free-spirited who also encouraged an unconventional lifestyle. In recent years, the popularity of festivals such as Coachell, Burning Man and Splendour in the Grass, has seen a resurgence of boho fashion. 

The elements of bohemian fashion include loose, flowing clothing made of natural fabrics, colorful patterns and layering. 

Below, some boho fashion trends.

Australian influencer Elle Ferguson  has become known for her beachy blonde waves and chic, effortless style. But, there's one thing the Elle Effect founder has mastered .with a little help from sister Baby Anything and that's the art of layered Bohemian jewelry. Taking new and vintage pieces and pairing them together, Elle manages to create a layered look that is

fluid, even among the chaos. 

• Paisley Print

The print has transcended decades and remains one of the Bohemian trends most headstrong identifiers. “Paisley has been a popular motif in fashion for centuries,” Jeremy Landmead, brand and content director of Mr Porter, once told BBC Culture. "And especially in the West following the hippie-inspired styles of the 1960s and 1970s, which have been having a resurgence of late with brands such as Saint Laurent, Burberry and Gucci adopting paisley."
